On Tuesday night, Rakow Czestochowa and Copenhagen clash in the Champions League play-off round first leg.

Rakow Czestochowa

The Polish team are making their Champions League debut in the competition this season and will look to move a step closer to the group stages by recording a first-leg victory.

In fact, Rakow has only ever featured in two previous European campaigns in their history.

They participated in the UEFA Conference League in season 2021/22, where they suffered elimination at the play-off stage at the hands of Belgian outfit Gent.

They suffered the same fate in the same competition last season, but this time, Slavia Prague eliminated them at the play-off stage.

However, they have a good record in this season's Champions League so far, winning five of their six games in the competition, getting the better of Flora, Qarabag and Aris Limassol.

The Medallions have also won all three of their home games so far in European football’s elite competition.

Copenhagen

Unlike their hosts, the Danish visitors have a long history in the Champions League, including featuring in last season’s group stages alongside Manchester City, Dortmund and Sevilla.

They failed to win any of their group games in last season's competition, though.

However, they have fared better in the preliminary rounds of this season's competition, as a 3-3 draw at Sparta Prague in the last round and a penalty kick win means that they are unbeaten in five games in European football.

The Danish team has been relatively prolific in the Champions League, scoring at least two goals in three of their last four outings.

Copenhagen have been poor travellers of late in the competition, as they have won just one of their last seven away games over 90 minutes.
